Sacramento Maternity Photography | Queena + Tyler

Queena e-mailed me about a maternity session last year. She let me know I took engagement photos for her co-worker, Andrea, and it is always awesome to meet new families through my past couples. I always get excited about photographing growing families, and this was no exception. Queena and Tyler are both doctors here in Sacramento. We chatted about their maternity leave, world travels, their plans for their new baby. It never surprises me how humans can connect on so many levels, even when we first meet. I can say, with truth, I really enjoy meeting and getting to know people. I feel happiness and anticipation for them to meet their new baby.

The way Tyler and Queena get along is so very sweet. Their relationship is natural and kind and we had a blast wandering the gardens near Land Park. We lucked out with some really pretty sunlight and warm weather, even though it was late fall. Tyler is from back east, and they sported some jerseys to show their new baby boy how much he has to love the family team.

We met in Land Park for their session. Sacramento offers such beautiful spots for photographs, and shooting maternity photos here was perfect. The gardens have the best little spots to tuck couples away and get some lovely, intimate images. The moments were strong here, mainly because these two really love each other and are truly excited for their baby. I know the feeling of waiting not-so patiently for a baby to arrive. I know you’ll be awesome parents. Congrats to you two!!

Sacramento Family Photography | Cristin + crew at their new Novato home

When Cristin and Matt moved to Novato she called me for an in-home session. She decided to do their yearly photo session in the midst of the chaos of moving and construction. Family photography in home, in the middle of real life? Yes please! (Side note: her house is styled to perfection. I wouldn’t expect anything less from this powerhouse of a woman!) Their new home was the perfect backdrop for their annual photos and I love this session so much! So you have moving boxes all over your house and living room? That’s totally fine. This session has character, much like my friend, Cristin. I admire her and her spirit and style. Moving boxes help tell their story.

I have no idea how I missed blogging this family. Our paths crossed years ago and I am so thankful! Cristin is pretty much the coolest girl in school. She is an amazing photographer (check her out here!) and I have had the absolute pleasure of photographing her family for a handful of years. I’ve met her before kids, seen her pregnant with two beautiful daughters, photographed a newborn session, and now a family session for her family of four. I worried when they considered moving out of state. They bought a house in the Bay and she is stuck with me forever! I love their spirit, their family vibe, everything about this crew is fun and fabulous. Her girls are a crack-up and make me happy.

Here is hopefully years and years of friendship and photography!

Sacramento Newborn Photographer | Baby Caroline

This family is the best. I have known Andrea since 2013, when we met in a coffee shop to talk about wedding photography. Now four years, an engagement, a wedding, a maternity session, and two beautiful daughters later we meet again! It has been a joy to document this growing family, and I wish all the happiness to Andrea and Jason and their girls. I am so thankful for their support and seeing them again is really awesome. Welcome to the world, Caroline! You are so loved.
